District Web Accessibility Policy
Davison Community Schools recognizes the importance of ensuring accessibility of its website for students, prospective students, employees and all other visitors with disabilities.
The District, in providing equally effective alternate access, shall take any actions that do not result in a fundamental alteration or undue financial and administrative burdens, but nevertheless ensure that, to the maximum extent possible, individuals with disabilities receive the same benefits and services as their non-disabled peers. In those circumstances where the District’s web accessibility coordinators believe that the proposed action would fundamentally alter the service, program or activity would result in undue financial and administrative burdens, the District has the burden of proving that compliance would result in such alteration or burdens. The decision that compliance would result in such alteration or burdens must be made by the Superintendent of Schools or his or her designee after considering all resources available for use in the funding and operation of the service, program or activity and must be accompanied by a written statement of the reasons reaching that conclusion.
If an action would result in such an alteration or such burdens, the District shall take any other action that would not result in such an alteration or such burdens but would nevertheless ensure that, to the maximum extent possible, individuals with disabilities receive the benefits and services provided by the District.
